“They are AMAZING!! My little dog Mochi loved them a lot and I can tell he had good time with them. Normally Mochi is very shy with other people. But right away when Mochi sees Nadine family, they are already being friends. They knows dogs well and find out very quick what doggy needs. Friendly, sweet, treat like family. Everyday send me a comment (condition of my dog, what is plan) with good pictures. It makes me feel so much comfortable. Best people ever! I will come back with them. Thank you so much!! ☺️”
“Elizabeth and family took such amazing care of my baby girl that she didn’t want to leave. Elizabeth’s communication with us was top notch keeping us updated through Lizzie’s stay, which helped ease our anxiety about leaving her. I would definitely recommend Elizabeth to take care of your pet, she was terrific!”
“Absolutely amazing ! Knowing my baby was in a loving home being spoiled really put me at ease during my vacation. Lots of photos and tons of smiles from my boy . A million times thank you ♥️♥️”
“My kids were really nervous about leaving our pup, but when we met Zuleima they instantly became comfortable. She opened her home for us to visit and she provides a great environment. She send pictures and updates daily which was very nice. I would definitely utilize her services again.”
About: I have spent 10 years of my life taking care of my own animals and families pet. On top of schooling to provide the best care possible. Currently part time, my availability is Sunday, Monday and Thursday. Hours can be interchangeable; never be afraid to ask :). Completely free those days to be attentive to your pets. I’ve had dogs all my life. I know how to play with animals for maximum exercise, can follow dietary instructions and have a deep rooted love for all species. Dogs are the babies in my home and receive the utmost care and love. Never worry about other dogs in the home or mistreatment from others.
“Our dog loves staying with Jieun! She is very professional and communicates in a timely manner both before and during visits, but most of all we know our dog is in great hands.”
“Nicole was amazing! They took such good care of our dog and he’s not super easy ? our vet described him as “scared of life”, while staying with Nicole though he was safe and happy! We are so glad we picked her- cannot recommend her enough for watching your fur babies!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and experienced dog owner who understands how important it is to find someone you trust with your pet. I currently have two friendly, well-socialized dogs of my own, Rosie (8) and Lily (6). I work a professional full-time job with a hybrid schedule so I’m only in the office three days per week. Whether your dog enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles on the couch, or simply a calm environment, I’ll do my best to maintain their normal routine and help them feel comfortable while you’re away. I know leaving your pet can be stressful, so I provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you can feel confident that your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for. For the safety and comfort of all pets, I prefer to schedule a meet-and-greet before boarding whenever possible. My goal is to create a positive and comfortable experience for both you and your dog. Feel free to reach out with any questions! Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I have two dogs of my own, so my days naturally revolve around feeding, exercise, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I work a hybrid schedule and am always home evenings and weekends, allowing me to provide consistent care, supervision, and companionship for visiting pets. I enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I care for every pet as if they were my own by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I provide regular feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of affection. In my home, pets receive a safe, comfortable environment with close supervision. I also pay attention to each pet’s individual needs and keep owners updated with photos and messages throughout their stay.
“We left our Bernese Mountain Dog with Kara for a week and a half and had so much peace of mind knowing he was being loved as much as we love him. Kara was great and sent us many pictures and updates throughout our time away. I have to say, our doggie looked like he was smiling in all of the pictures...I was afraid he wouldn't want to come home :) I highly recommend Kara to love your pets in your absence!”
About: We are kinda new to this but we are willing to pet sit and do any tasks you ask of us that are within reason. My wife has owned a lot of pets and so have I. I’ve had 3 dogs and 2 cats and one lived for almost all my life so we both love animals and will treat them with the best care. We are currently looking for jobs and we have a happy life and are willing to start petsitting your pets anytime you need us. We are actually autistic. We have owned a lot of pets and we take extra care of our pets. We will do the best we can to take care of your animals. :)
“Tara is a great care giver for my dog, a large lan. She has a a dog equipped home and a fenced in back yard. She’s cheerful, accommodating, and provided healthy snacks. She and her husband took her for walks multiple times per day. Totally trustworthy and communicative. Best Rover find ever!”
About: I have a close connection with a well-respected, professional dog trainer. I can usually get helpful tips and techniques on short notice, which I have used to successfully train puppies on basic commands (sit, stay, etc). I have 1 cat (2yrs old) who is neutered, indoor, and very shy. I work from home so I spend a lot of time caring for my pet which includes 3 mealtimes, plus play/enrichment time, and relaxing downtime each day. For dog care, I have a small fenced in yard and live in a nice area, so dog walks and outdoor potty breaks are very convenient at most times of day.
“I had a great experience and would definitely book with her again! She was very responsive and always answered my texts quickly. She sent photos and videos at least twice a day, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She really made sure my dog was comfortable throughout his stay. Since he was there over the Fourth of July, she even turned up the AC to help drown out the fireworks, which I really appreciated. I was initially a little nervous because three other dogs were staying with her at the same time, but she reassured me they were all getting along and sent videos so I could see for myself. In the end, my dog looked like he was having an amazing time! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and attentive dog sitter.”
“First time with the strangers, and it was a success! Our old lady was in top condition when we picked her up! Stefanie sent us updates/pictures every day, it was nice to see Ozzi being calm and comfortable. They even provided our dog with a rug for walking over the hardwood floors. Just shows how much they cared! Thank you!”
“Tatiana took great care of our Ricky boy for 4 days. She was attentive to detail, sent lots of photos and treated him like her own. Ricky is usually slow to warm up to people, but took a liking to her immediately. He also loved the fully fenced yard to run around and play! We will definitely be booking again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - New Haven
Kiayla is an absolute joy to meet with a positive caring attitude towards the care and safety of our fur baby. She was attentive to his needs in this new experience and environment, as well as showing him who’s the boss to continue consistent care and expectations for a pleasant stay. I would definitely recommend her and book Ms. Kiayla again.
Ashley was very reliable, excellent care giver. She walked my dog every day. I was so lucky to have Ashley available to take care of Charlie my little dog. Charlie was so excited to see Ashley’s beautiful and friendly dog , I really loved petting her dog, he was so cute and so smart. I definitely rebook with Ashley whenever I am back in New Haven. Location was great too! Near Yale.
Katherine took wonderful care of our dog, Petunia, during her stay over a recent, long weekend. She sent frequent messages and photos as to Petunia's activities which gave us great confidence that Petunia was happy and comfortable staying with Katherine. We will definitely book a stay with Katherine in the future when Petunia needs boarding.
Shelby was a wonderful sitter. she was readily available and responsive and made my cat, Sage, feel right at home, so much so that Sage didn't want to leave! Shelby also sent plenty of pictures and videos so I could see Sage during my time away. I would highly recommend Shelby for your pet's home away from home.
Sai did an amazing job with Kali! It was her first time away from home, and she was given all the love she needed and wanted to be comfortable. Sai sent pictures and updates throughout her stay, giving us the reassurance we needed. We look forward to booking with her again!
Mari was amazing with my girl Mabel. I boarded with her for a week and she was consistent with updates and keeping up with my dogs high energy levels. Her dog Duke was a great playmate for her and she took her to the dog park for daily playtime. Would absolutely recommend her services and rebook for my next trip away. She’s the best!
Bianka took great care of our dog Scooby, who presents with many challenges, including anxiety and blindness. She spent a lot of time with Scooby, such as by walking, petting, and playing with him. She even kept him company and played calming music for him when he woke up in the middle of the night. Bianka also sent frequent updates that included pictures. We are so grateful for Bianka!
Kayla and her husband took such great care of Gus! They had him 11 days and sent photos and videos every day. They have a wonderful female Vizla who seemed to love Gus, and their big fenced yard gave him a safe place to play. They also went on walks and outings, even to the beach. He was glad to see me when I got back but he was looking out the rear window as we drove away, perhaps sorry his vacation was over! Highest regard for the care he received!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in New Haven on Rover is $52.98 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 1,258 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in New Haven. About 91% of New Haven sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in CT ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
